Where is the line between training with discipline and developing a harmful relationship with exercise, the body, or food?

Some questions to start the discussion:

  • What signs might indicate that a young athlete is training because of pressure, fear, or body dissatisfaction?
  • How can coaches, families, and peers respond without judging or stigmatizing?
  • What role do social media play in the pursuit of the “perfect body”?
  • How can we promote the true value of sport: health, enjoyment, self-esteem, and well-being?
